[OpenWrt-Devel] Lots of missing packages!
I used Imagebuilder from 2013-11 to build custom OpenWrt firmware for Carambola 2 ar71xx based devices. Today I saw that BB 14.07 RC2 has been released so I tried it, and was chocked that so many of CRUCIAL packages are missing! I immediately opened new bug: https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/17496 These are packages that I found missing; bluez-libs, bluez-utils, coreutils, coreutils-stat, coreutils-stty, coreutils-timeout, glib2, i2c-tools, nano, ntpclient, picocom, python, tmux. But then I also tested latest trunk and saw that it is also missing some packages, not so many as BB-14.07-RC2 but also few of them are critical for my custom firmware. Also bug opened: https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/17497 I saw that you have decided to make a big change to how packages are handled, but is there a there a trunk version Imagebuilder for ar71xx PREVIOUS to these changes? I really, really, really need it. And AA is not good for me because it has some bugs that trunk version has fixed.

I looked in developement list archive but couldn't find a discussion in which this decision was made to drop lots of packages. Please point me to this discussion.

Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] Lots of missing packages!
Hi Valent, we decided to reorganize the packages feed in June, since lots of the packages in there were unmaintained and we had lot's of patches we couldn't review. The new feed resides on github which makes contributing more straigt-forward. See https://github.com/openwrt/packages. Now the problem with packages like python or php in "oldpackages" is that they build a version which have known security issues, so providing binaries for them without notice is a bit dubious. Note: we didn't delete any package-definitions we just stopped building binaries. Once someone takes over maintainership for them and keeps them updated we will gladly welcome them in our new packages feed and start building binariers for them again. The current status of "oldpackages" is this: If you are using trunk and want to use the possibly outdated packages you have to enable the oldpackages feed and build them manually. If you are using barrier breaker in the final version we will still build these outdated packages in binary form but won't enable the package repository in opkg.conf by default, so you have to manually opt-in to use these packages. Some packages there might be broken due to changes in the SDK but this will hopefully get addressed before the final release. The next release after barrier breaker will not include any unmaintained packages at all not even as opt-in. So if you want to see some of the old packages reappearing in trunk and future releases please adopt them and become a maintainer or convince someone else to do it. See https://github.com/openwrt/packages/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md Regards, Steven ___ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel

So, are the precompiled packages on openwrt.org [1] indicative of what will be available for the final release of BB? From there on ar71xx, nano was missing from RC1, but is back for RC2 [2] and RC3 [3]. Looking in the same folder [1] for the packages that Valent mentioned in his second ticket, I also see bluez-libs [4], bluez-utils [5], /i2c-tools [6], ntpclient [7], picocom [8] and python [9] as precompiled packages.

Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] Lots of missing packages!
What you see right now in RC3 will be there in the final as well, it will just be split up into subdirectories and the unmaintained packages "oldpackages" need to be manually enabled in /etc/opkg.conf on your router before being installable using opkg. In RC3 they are still all together in one package repository. There might be a few more packages in the final but what is in RC3 now (rsync is still running btw.) is a pretty good estimate of what will be there.

Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] Lots of missing packages!
I just installed Barrier Breaker RC3 and opkg snows that nano, picocom, python, tmux and few others I complained about are available! Whom do I need to buy a case of beer? It looks like they are all available via standard package repo. But if I try to build image via ImageBuilder these packages still aren't included with ImageBuilder for BB rc3. I thught that all packages that are available in openwrt repo are also packages with ImageBuilder. So why are they missing?

Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] Lots of missing packages!
Hi, I think there is some confusion about manual building and the Imagebuilder. At least in my case the RC3 Image Builder reacts to the feeds-script like that: ./scripts/feeds update Unable to open feeds configuration at ./scripts/feeds line 40. Concerning the missing packages in the Image Builder RC3: You can fix that by manually downloading the missing packages to the "packages" directory from http://downloads.openwrt.org/barrier_breaker/14.07-rc3/ .../.../packages At least this worked for me with the nano package.
